Some more fiddling led me to find out the correct syntax in display
manager:

str_3='"W Arctic"'

which creates a valid sql query and the map plots correctly.  However,
this runs into another problem with d.out.file from a display of the
queried map and says:


Sorry <Arctic'> is not a valid option


Could this be a bug?  If the 'where' statement does its job with this
string, I would have expected d.out.file to work too.
